The Coast Guard closes a bay for a boat race, again

The Coast Guard is temporarily closing off parts of San Pedro Bay in California. This is to protect people and boats during a large boat race.

Every time there is a large event on navigable waters, the Coast Guard has to issue a special local regulation. This means that for a few hours or days, specific areas become off-limits to unauthorized vessels. It is a routine but necessary step to manage safety during public events on the water.
